Hope Covenant Church

Full Description:

Though a relationship with Christ contains a very personal element, recent cultural trends often reduce this to a warped, unscriptural individualism; it depicts you and Jesus as two loners in a buddy-cop movie, trying to battle your three opponents-your flesh, the world, and the devil-outside of healthy, biblical community. A segment of professing believers in our country today don't go or get involved with church at all, claiming that "all they need is Jesus". This is frequently more tragic than it is merely ludicrous. At the same time, many people mingle briefly on Sunday, expecting smiles, handshakes, and token name-dropping to occur, thinking they've successfully embodied community. Neither could be farther from the truth.
